Wondering if anyone might have some input regarding the placement of lossless files for playback in terms of hard drives.
I occasionally a drop out when playing back lossless files if I multitask.
Would lossless files be best placed on the OS hard drive (separate partition)? Or perhaps a nice speedy, separate hard drive/partition? Would any of this even matter?
My PC connects to my EMU 0404 USB which then connects to desktop speakers and headphone amp. The EMU 0404 USB connects to my PC via a separate add-on USB card (NEC chipset) which holds no other USB devices.
I'm trying to figure out what might be considered optimal for PC playback of lossless flac files in general.
My PC specs: W7 Pro 32-bit, Quad Core Q9550, 4GB ram.
